    Love

    Just saw a video about a person who went to just buy some food and the server was nice and kind to them. Mentioning how we as human beings have this power (which by the spirit of Christ most certainly ) where we can pass on something to another. By the way one interacts and holds themselves...

    By the spirit of Christ. A gift we can give in kindness, encouragement, or we can by our flesh pass on darkness. Or we can pass nothing on.

    (ministry of death) Thoughts on these verses?

    “Now if the ministry of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such glory that the Israelites could not gaze at Moses’ face because of its glory, which was being brought to an end, will not the ministry of the Spirit have even more glory? For if there was glory in the ministry of...

    Let's talk about Salvation

    Salvation. The Gospel of Christ is the power of God to Salvation for anyone who believes. It’s the change of being given a new heart from God and the spirit. Be encouraged to read your Bible and you will be renewed in your mind as you go along. Once you realize that you are a child of God...

    Stumblingblock Truths of the Gospel !

    My friend Nancy. From my understanding the people who where written and given the Gospel they were are all given the Gospel before the destruction of Jerusalem and the wrath of God was poured out on them. The Apostles where the governance back then of the Bride of Christ and those faithful to...

    This Lie Went Down Smoothly

    @Lambano When younger before ever knowing Christ that was something that worried me because of what was taught by many people in that time about going to hell. I never read scriptures hardly except a few times and I was extremely intimidated by them. The reality is like you mentioned, we will...

    Why does Jesus speak in Parables?

    Thank you for sharing more of your insights. I would go as far as to say to anyone reading this comment of how important it is. To consider, everything that is in the Bible. When engaging a parable always asks these principles. Who, what, when, where, why, and how. Also induct anything and...

    Athens or Jerusalem or Neither?

    Thank you for sharing and your comment. He has taught me many things, one being to think for oneself and to challenge anything and everything and to read the Bible. It’s the only way to renew the mind.

    Athens or Jerusalem or Neither?

    A video on ways of thinking, with mention of some philosophers, and ethics. Should one think like the Greeks? Should one think like the Jews? Should one mix the two? Should one divide against the other? Should one think for themselves along with reasoning and logic?

    Mark 8:38 - My understanding

    Hello you reader, Please look at this, there is also evidence from the writings of Moses to consider. “‘Surely not one of these men of this evil generation shall see that good land of which I swore to give to your fathers,” ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭1:35‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “And the time we took to come from...

    This Lie Went Down Smoothly

    Some scripture to take into consideration is Romans 6:1-13. Listen closely. The flesh itself will sin, some how some way. It doesn’t matter. However considering we are to walk in newness of life. The sin nature of our flesh - or you could say the flesh does dark things. Should start to diminish...

    Mark 9:1 - Please share insights if you would like

    @Truth7t7 With Jesus overcoming death, would that also entail the overcoming even the Second death to you? I see that in Revelation 20/21/22 It seems as though there is the white throne Judgment which seems to me to relate with Paul - in Romans chapter 14, in when he mentioned to them in the...

    Mark 9:1 - Please share insights if you would like

    I would agree, that is a very good thing to do, the answers are most certainly founded in the bible. Prayer and asking God to help us with His wisdom/understanding by the spirit. @Truth7t7, That would make sense to me; so that Jesus would be the first fruits of the raising from the dead...

    Backwards in destruction:

    Hello VictoryinJesus, Continuing steadfast, persistence in faith. Is good for saving the soul. (Our Mind/Will/Emotion/Heart). If one stops having faith, is there some type of loss? I do believe so. Though God will be the one to judge that person. Continuing to move forward and grow in...

    Bible Software

    Hello you reader, Just happened to see the title of the thread, My thoughts below, I am currently using E-sword for study, a NKJV Study Bible from Holman, and a NASB77 Thompson Chain Reference Bible. It is useful, for E-sword - Treasury Scriptural Knowledge Cross References is very helpful...

    Christian Liberty

    But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written: “As I live, says the Lord, Every knee shall bow to Me, And every tongue shall confess to God.” So then each of us shall give account of...
